How to consume Lettuce Salad With Cheese, Tomato And/Or Carrots without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate protein sources like grilled chicken, hard-boiled eggs, or tofu into your salad. Protein helps slow down the absorption of sugars.
Increase Fiber
Mix in high-fiber vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your salad. Fats can help slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Choose Leafy Greens
Opt for a higher proportion of leafy greens such as spinach or arugula, which are low in carbohydrates and can help moderate glucose spikes.
Limit Cheese
Use a small amount of cheese or opt for low-fat varieties to reduce the overall carbohydrate and fat content of your salad.
Watch Dressings
Use dressing sparingly and choose options like olive oil and vinegar, which do not contain added sugars and unhealthy fats.
Whole Grains
If you want to add some crunch or bulk to your salad, consider adding a small portion of whole grains like quinoa or barley which release glucose more slowly.
Portion Control
Be mindful of your portion sizes, particularly with higher carbohydrate toppings like tomatoes and carrots, to avoid overconsumption.
Balanced Meals
Pair your salad with another low-carbohydrate, high-protein food like a side of grilled fish or a bowl of lentil soup to help balance the overall meal.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water with your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
